Interested UPGRADING your HID's and Lights?

Hey ladies & gentlemen!

I have deals for HID upgrades. Whether you are interested to upgrade your D2R's brighter or if you want to change your OEM foglight to HID's, I can get you people a good deal.

I can also get a full set of light bulb upgrades all around your G35. Exterior and Interior.

First I need some heads up on about how many people are interested. It doesnt matter where you are located, I can have it sent to you easily.

If you are interested, drop me a message here in this post or in private message and tell me what you are interested in. Reason I need to do this first? Because if not enough people are interested, it won't be worth the time to get the stock in. Thanks.

Re: Interested UPGRADING your HID's and Lights?

any ballpark prices? I think most of us would be interested in an 8K bulb upgrade.. as for Fogs, some Piaa Xtremes or Ion H4's?

Re: Interested UPGRADING your HID's and Lights?

I dont have the exact prices yet. I just need to see what the response is. I can tell you this, I helped a friend get a set of 8000k for under $400 for his 2001 Honda Accord.

I don't mean to keep anything secretive. Just I don't want to list a price yet and find out I can't offer it in the end. That would be a disappointment to everyone.

For the fogs, the choices are bulb upgrade to most brands out there, color of your choice. " OR " Straight upgrade to H4 Hids, which I am about to do.

Other lights I was referring to are: License Plate light, trunk, map lights, door lights, front bumper marker lights, and last but not least the headlight markers.

Interesting enough, my front bumper markers don't blink when signalling, I wonder if it's just me =P

Re: Interested UPGRADING your HID's and Lights?

I think I'd be interested in either some matching color H4's for my fogs or maybe a HID conversion if it's not too expensive. I'm also interested in the price for some brighter better color bulbs for my standard HB2 HID's. Let me know here or message me privately. Much appreciated man thanks. Peace.

I'm interested as well. Just a few questions tho. Will upgraded bulbs require upgraded ballasts? I noticed that the HIDs that our cars come with are pretty terrible. I noticed that the fog lights acutally light up the road better than the HIDs. Is this because the headlights aren't projectors?

Re: Interested UPGRADING your HID's and Lights?

Neither the fog nor the Xenon is a projection setup. They use reflected light instead of projected light. I really can't figure out why they did this since the 350z has semi-projection lenses on it. I am currently searching for a conversion kit for the Headlight housing that would allow this, nothing yet though. As for the ballasts I'm not sure about that but if the bulbs are the same wattage one would think that the ballasts would be fine. Peace.

Re: Interested UPGRADING your HID's and Lights?

Hey everyone,

Thanks for all the response, it seems we have something going here and soon i can post a list with prices.

For all of you who are asking about the ballasts and bulbs replacements. If you dont change the ballasts, you are not changing the HID's practically. Eitherway you probably only find bulb replacements from OEM parts or on ebay or something.

For the HID's it ranges from 4000k-8500k honorably. There are kits that claim 10000k and 12000k, but I am sceptical on those. The ones on the coupe currently are 4000k's and from what my friend tells me, they should be made by Catz.

Honestly they are just white colored compared to other's i seen. You may change them to a few color setups. and for the fogs, you can upgrade to HID's as well or you can just change to matching color bulbs made by most famous brands.

I hope this answers most of your questions. I will keep everyone updated if a deal can come together.
